[..] Hi Bejnamin, If you get the green light to break the user space we might as well think about getting it in line with led/oled over bluetooth (intuos4 wireless) or the other way around.
The biggest user of led/oled functionality is gnome and there are also a few small projects that would stop working after that change. I can fix i4oled project easily, i4oled-gui is based on gnome handling oleds.
Patching those 2 should be enough to fix gnome: https://git.gnome.org/browse/gnome-settings-daemon/tree/plugins/wacom/gsd-wacom-led-helper.c https://git.gnome.org/browse/gnome-settings-daemon/tree/plugins/wacom/gsd-wacom-oled-helper.c
